Actually I was suggesting that the joint public sessions that have been run so far - are good for speakers from each side expressing their points of view - but they don't help reach any consensus/compromise. In fact they are probably better for discussing brand new policies where wide ranging views are useful at the beginning of a policy development exercise. I was suggesting that to move forward on issues such as geographic names that you may consider a different approach of getting smaller working groups of experts together to consider the issues further.
